Description

Meet at Saddlehorn Picnic Area to begin your journey of exploring and learning about our night skies through telescopes and a ranger program.

Please arrive at least 10 minutes before the start of the program to minimize headlight and flashlight lights.  If you have one, use a red flashlight. This will help preserve everyone's night vision.

Bring a chair and insect repellant for your comfort.

Bringing pets is not recommended due to safety concerns.  Service dogs are welcome.

This is a weather permitting event and is subject to be cancelled.
